E2E Locator & Gherkin
Build Playwright locators and lint Gherkin feature files.
Building Playwright locators and linting Gherkin
End-to-end tests fail when locators break after UI refactors. Playwright locator builders combine role, text, and test id strategies readable in failure screenshots. Gherkin linters catch ambiguous steps and inconsistent Given/When/Then structure in feature files.
Prefer user-visible locators over CSS paths tied to DOM depth. Lint Gherkin for duplicate step wording that obscures intent. Link scenarios to traceable requirements IDs when auditing coverage.
Locator builders accelerate authoring but generated selectors still need review against accessibility tree changes.
Draft locators locally on HTML snapshots from staging. Snapshots may include feature flags visible only to internal accounts.
